The actress Susan Sarandon despises the Jewish state. She stands foursquare with Hamas. She has denied the atrocities Hamas committed on October 7 — the rapes, tortures, mutilations, and murders of 1,200 Israelis. She accuses Israel, not Hamas, of “genocide” and “war crimes.” And she is now feeling sorry for herself because her agency has left her, and offers of work have dried up — apparently not everyone is willing to ignore her noxious views.
More on Sarandon’s wallowing in self-pity can be found here: “Actress Susan Sarandon claims blacklisted over pro-Palestinian rally, antisemitism,” Jerusalem Post, November
Actress Susan Sarandon claims she was blacklisted from Hollywood because of her antisemitic statements in an interview with the Sunday Times.
In November, Sarandon joined a pro-Palestinian rally in New York City, where she stated that “a lot of people were afraid of being Jewish at this time and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country, so often subjected to violence.”…
There have reportedly been ten thousand antisemitic attacks in the United States since October 7, 2023. Sarandon believes Jews are now getting only “a taste” of what It feels like to be a Muslim in this country; she apparently believes Muslims are subject to far greater violence than Jews.
Sarandon said in the interview that after her statements from the rally were publicized the fallout was immediate, “I was dropped by my agency, my projects were pulled,” she says. “I’ve been used as an example of what not to do if you want to continue to work.”…
How unfair that supporters of Israel no longer wish to be associated with Susan Sarandon. How unjust of them to think her support of Hamas — by denying its atrocities, and by putting its October 7 attacks in their proper “historical context” so as to justify them — could be construed as antisemitism.
In April, Sarandon was approached by a fan where she denied Hamas’s October 7 atrocities and defended the terror group’s decision to reject multiple ceasefire agreements.
“We know that all of those myths about babies in ovens and the rapes…” Sarandon said in the video recording.
Long after the evidence of the atrocities, including eyewitness accounts and video evidence (taken by the rapists themselves) of girls and women being subject to mass rapes had been made public and accepted by the world, Susan Sarandon was denying they had ever happened. She has appeared alongside such groups as “Doctors Against Genocide” in visits to Congress. She has called for ending all aid to Israel. And she has in many venues chanted “From the river to the sea/Palestine will be free,” which is a call for the destruction of Israel and its replacement by a twenty-third Arab state. At a rally in New York, she accused Israel of “committing war crimes” in Gaza. She has supported South Africa’s brief at the International Court of Justice accusing Israel of “genocide.”
Susan Sarandon has posted on social media to more than 870,000 followers “Don’t let anyone tell you it started on Oct. 7, 2023.” By that, she meant that the Israelis have been carrying out atrocities against the Palestinians for decades, so it was understandable that the attacks by Hamas took place. According to Sarandon, those October 7 attacks were only in response to decades of Israeli violence and oppression. In her post, she listed 21 “massacres” that she appeared to blame on Jews, from 1937 to 2021, and the “Gaza genocide 2023,” which she called “still ongoing.”
While accusing Israel of “genocide” and “war crimes” and calling for Israel’s destruction, Susan Sarandon has never yet denounced Hamas, not just for the atrocities she denies ever occurred, but also for its use of its own civilians as human shields, by embedding its men and weapons in civilian areas and structures, including schools, mosques, hospitals, apartment and office buildings.
Now she wants the world’s sympathy, because the United Talent Agency months ago dropped her as a client, and she has not been getting the job offers that she believes she has a right to expect. Feel her pain, she asks of us. Sorry, Susan, no can do. You’ve made your bed — your anti-Israel and antisemitic bed — now lie in it.
I find it hard to believe that so many people believe the lies about Israel when there are reliable sources where the truth can be found – such as FPM . I can only think people like Sarandon WANT to believe Israel is the cause of all the trouble
Maybe I should be not surprised that Sarandon is even dumber and more obnoxious than I thought she was. It’s too bad her family did not do some kind of intervention on her or any of the many, many men she has fornicated with in her life. She is dumber than a door nail. It’s obvious she hates Jews, knows nothing about the Middle East and thinks that the Jews had it coming.
Bottom line, she is hateful. And all her movies were totally sappy.
You have freedom of speech, but not freedom from consequences not of the government. From the Koran to the Hamas charter, death to Israel is Islams priority. Willful blindness isn’t an excuse, it’s a character flaw. You’re not a victim Susan, you’re a tool and a fool.
I have always loathed that posturing fraud, who (much like Vanessa Redgrave) is not only a vicious Jew hater but also a vastly overrated actress. More than 20 years ago when actor Ron Silver supported the War on Terror after 09/11 she confronted him by shrilling, “You’re just saying that because you’re a Jew!” In any case, just as she has the freedom to express political opinions (a freedom her Hamas comrades deny their opponents, and she would abolish if she had the power) others have a right to express their opinions of her over-all negative aura, her Jew hating, or her pretentious acting by boycotting her. As vile as she is I just wish her permanent obscurity. She’d wish something more lethal for Israeli Jews.
I ignore and have nothing to do with anyone or entity stupid enough, no, self-obsessed enough, to mix business with politics. They alienate fans, as well as potential ones. They deserve backlash. A lot of them are of questionable talent.
Susan Saran-Wrap just another Hollywood leftists to Boycott their movies
Hollywood Actresses -The older they get.
The lower their derrieres sag.
The higher their liberal quotient rises.

There were no Jews living in Gaza for eighteen years prior to the
Oct 7 2023 attack against Jews by Hamas. Gaza was in the hands
of Palestinians all that time – thanks to Israel.
Did they try to build a separate and productive state of their own
next to Israel? No, from the very first, Hamas – who took over in
2007 – sent missiles into Israel and continued to do so for the next
16 years. Culminating in the sadistic massacre of Oct 7.
Could anyone suppose that dumbass Susan Sarandon knows any
of this – or that she would care, even if she did?
Build a separate and productive state? They were never meant to do that, the first thing they did when they arrived from all parts of the Middle East was to destroy the green houses built by the Israelis!
Fathi Hammad, Hamas Minister of the Interior & National Security representing them artlessly defined “the Palestinians” when addressing Egypt in 2012 to beg for more fuel supply: “the spearhead for islam and the muslims.. to continue to wage jihad”
“Brothers, there are 1.8 million of us (Arabs) in Gaza… Al Aqsa (The Dome of the Roc) and the land of Palestine represent the spearhead for islam and the muslims. When we seek the help [of our muslim brothers] it is to continue to wage jihad… Allah be praised, we [“Palestinians”] all have Arab roots, and every “Palestinian” in Gaza and throughout “Palestine” can prove his Arab roots, whether from Saudi Arabia, from Yemen, or anywhere… Brothers, half of the “Palestinians” are Egyptians, the other half are Saudis. Who are the “Palestinians”?… They may be from Alexandria, from Cairo, from Dumietta, from the North, from Aswan, from upper Egypt, we are Egyptians, we are Arabs, we are muslims, we are a part of you.”
Here is the video:
Thank you, Atikva. I watched a video last night on JNS.org.
It was the great Caroline Glick and an Israeli journalist
called “Chilling Warning to the West”. They have concluded
that the Palestinians – the Muslims – will never stop waging
war and jihad against Israel and the Jews and the conflict
will be eternal.
Just like Americans fight to remain free and sovereign will
be eternal – against the force of evil and tyranny.
Thanks for the looney tunes update. Hollywood is awful, but not yet, completely corrupted.
“she has not been getting the job offers that she believes she has a right to expect.”
Oh that we should all be getting those job offers that we have a right to expect.
Poor little semi-rich has been. Maybe she can hook up with Kevin Costner or Tim Robbins for a 35th anniversary return to North Carolina and the Durham Bulls….The Nursing Home Tales.
Ms. Sarandon is 78, time to make a choice and concentrate either on her art, or on her political activism. Too bad, if she counted on the one to promote the second, especially at a time when it has become clear that the Hollywood clique’s islamo-leftist inclination is of no significance whatsoever to the American people.
It’s a free country. She can say whatever she wants. Other people can decide to hire her or not. We can all decide to see her movies or not.
I choose not to.
It’s a free country, so far.
It would be awesome if all of crazy Hollywood would leave for Europe, anywhere, Bye Bye Felicia
HOLLYWOOD. The “stars” politics are tiresome.
SS. I don’t care about your politics. PLZ do not share yours with me.
I know that you are an “actress.” Beyond that I cannot name any sitcom or movie you were in.
Were you in “All in the Family?” YOU are IRRELEVANT in most American lives. Meathead too.
Please move to Gaza and wave your arms in support of them. They will welcome your “American” presence.
Bye. Bye.
She is one more proof (if any was needd) that anyone who sides with the Palestinians ends up burnt or destroyed by them. They destroyed every country that made the mistake to host them and anyone who buys their invented “narrative” ends up looking like a fool. There are absolutely no benefits to supporting their cause.
She HAS to say outrageous and repugnant things so anyone remembers that she exists. Even negative publicity is better for a big ego than NO publicity.
The Nazis tried to hide their vile actions against the Jewish people and now everybody believes what they did all those decades ago.
Hamas actually FILMED their actions for all to see as they were proud of their vile actions and yet some people dont believe their own eyes…
Planet Earth has shifted slightly off its Axis.
I used to think that among the brain dead low iq Hollywood stars that force their poorly informed opinions on us, she showed a glimmer of intelligence…..occasionally. She at least stated her position well, and showed she understood the topic. So this time, I’m surprised to see now how truly stupid and ignorant she really is. Regurgitating antisemitism and hamas propaganda is NOT knowledge, it’s hate.
its unfortunate that we continually give the likes of sarandon air time , much like george clueless aka clooney . advocating that dimwit biden exit stage left so that harris could take over . we all know how that ended . entitlement does have its downside . yahoooo!
